You have the same issue if you move to a physical host with a different scsi
controller. Basically the disk driver for the root filesystem has to be
included in either the kernel or the initrd. You can usually boot the install
disk (even in vmware), add the driver you need to /etc/modprobe.conf and
rebuild
the initrd. Or a simple-minded approach is to do an install on the same or
similar hardware, save the contents of /boot, then copy that back over the
clonezilla load. That should give you the drivers the installer picks without
having to know the modules you need yourself.
